Megan at KPJ Group contacted me regarding a position in my local area on a Wednesday. The interview with the company was swiftly arranged for the next day and I was in work the following Monday! I was also called in the past by other members of KPJ Group regarding other positions, but at that time, I was working. I was assured that my CV would be kept on file, and almost a year later, I have been offered the right job at the right time! Thank you Megan, you are amazing!

I have worked for a few agencies in other areas and none have come close to the team at KPJ..I was first advised by Carla and then Bobbie, who were so helpful and friendly and approachable, as well as determined in finding employment as soon as possible.Then, i was helped to find a Permanent position by Gail, that matched everything i was looking for and nothing was too much trouble for her to find out and contact me about..This team are first class and i cant thank them enough.

In my opinion the KPJ Group is a unique group of people. I would like to mention one person, Kirsty Willocks. Kirsty is one of the consultants working at the KPJ Group in Glossop. I had a serious problem finding a job near my home, as well as bad experience with many recruiting agencies, that did not pay on time or found work far from my home or promised work and then called at the last minute and cancelled shift. I don't own a car and that's why I was looking for a job closer to my home and family. I must say that I was extremely lucky to meet Kirsty, who helped me find a job within a few days, 15 minutes on foot from home, as well as work in a company where people respects people and the atmosphere in this company is fantastic. Kirsty is a sincerely committed consultant and approaches the problem with full responsibility. In conversation with me, she was helpful, enthusiastic and very motivated to solve the problem of finding a job for me. I also have no problem calling the office to ask about something. All information or advice is presented very precisely. Also in my case, everything lasted only four days. On the first day, meeting and registration at the KPJ office in Glossop, and on the fourth day I went to work, WOW !!!, exactly the kind of work I was thinking about. Therefore, once again with full responsibility, I would like to recommend Kirsty and KPJ Group to everyone. In my life, I value contact with professionals, and Kirsty Willocks and KPJ Team are just such. I wish each of them only successes in private and professional life. As seen on Google and the website, KPJ Team has 99% positive five-star reviews. It is, with great pleasure, that this team of people gets the most stars from me. A five star for Kirsty and KPJ Group. Well done everyone.

From my experience, greediest agency ever. They took £23.00 from me for making out one pay slip. They took £19.00 from me for 'work finding commission', which I never agreed to, and in fact I never commissioned them to do anything. They just want to take as much from you as possible.
